Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork
Reduction Act Review
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
has submitted the information
collection request titled The National
Survey of Family Growth (NSFG) to the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and approval. CDC
previously published a ‘‘Proposed Data
Collection Submitted for Public
Comment and Recommendations’’
notice on June 10, 2021 to obtain
comments from the public and affected
agencies. CDC received one nonsubstantive comment related to the
previous notice. This notice serves to
allow an additional 30 days for public
and affected agency comments.
CDC will accept all comments for this
proposed information collection project.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
that:
(a) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agencies estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected;
(d) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including, through the

use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses; and
(e) Assess information collection
costs.
To request additional information on
the proposed project or to obtain a copy
of the information collection plan and
instruments, call (404) 639–7570.
Comments and recommendations for the
proposed information collection should
be sent within 30 days of publication of
this notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/
do/PRAMain. Find this particular
information collection by selecting
‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open
for Public Comments’’ or by using the
search function. Direct written
comments and/or suggestions regarding
the items contained in this notice to the
Attention: CDC Desk Officer, Office of
Management and Budget, 725 17th

Proposed Project
The National Survey of Family
Growth (NSFG) (OMB Control No.
0920–0314, Exp. 06/30/2021)—
Reinstatement with Change—National
Center for Health Statistics (NCHS),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Section 306 of the Public Health
Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 242k), as
amended, authorizes that the Secretary
of Health and Human Services (DHHS),
acting through NCHS, shall collect
statistics on ‘‘family formation, growth,
and dissolution,’’ as well as
‘‘determinants of health’’ and
‘‘utilization of health care’’ in the
United States. This information
collection request includes the data
collection in 2022–2024 for the
continuous National Survey of Family
Growth (NSFG).
The NSFG was conducted
periodically between 1973 and 2002,
continuously in 2006–2010, and after a
break of 15 months, continuously in
PO 00000
Frm 00037
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
2011–2019, by the National Center for
Health Statistics, CDC (CDC/NCHS). The
response rate during the 2011–2019 data
collection period ranged from 64.5–
74.0%, and the cumulative response
rate for this eight-year fieldwork period
was 67.7%.
The NSFG program produces
descriptive statistics which document
factors associated with birth and
pregnancy rates, including
contraception, infertility, marriage,
cohabitation, and sexual activity, in the
US household population 15–49 years
(15–44 prior to 2015), as well as
behaviors that affect the risk of HIV and
other sexually transmitted diseases
(STD). The survey also disseminates
statistics on the medical care associated
with contraception, infertility,
pregnancy, and related health
conditions.
NSFG data users include the DHHS
programs that fund the survey,
including CDC/NCHS and 11 others
within the Department of Health and
Human Services:
• Eunice Kennedy Shriver National
Institute for Child Health and Human
Development (NIH/NICHD)
• Office of Population Affairs (OPA)
• Children’s Bureau in the
Administration for Children and
Families (ACF/CB)
• Office of Planning, Research, and
Evaluation (ACF/CB)
• Office on Women’s Health (OASH/
OWH)
• CDC’s Division of HIV/AIDS
Prevention (CDC/NCHHSTP/DHAP)
• CDC’s Division of STD Prevention
(CDC/NCHHSTP/DSTDP)
• CDC’s Division of Adolescent and
School Health (CDC/NCHHSTP/
DASH)
• CDC’s Division of Reproductive
Health (CDC/NCCDPHP/DRH)
• CDC’s Division of Cancer Prevention
and Control (CDC/NCCDPHP/DCPC)
• CDC’s Division of Violence
Prevention (CDC/NCIPC/DVP)
The NSFG is also used by state and
local governments (primarily for
benchmarking to national data); private
research and action organizations
focused on men’s and women’s health,
child well-being, and marriage and the

family; academic researchers in the
social and public health sciences;
journalists, and many others.
CDC requests OMB approval to
reinstate NSFG data collection for three
years, with changes. Each year, about
13,500 households will be screened,
with about 5,000 participants
interviewed annually. Interviews are
expected to average 50 minutes for
males and 75 minutes for females.
Proposed changes include streamlining
information collection content in some
sections as well as adding a limited
number of new questions, including
questions about childhood experiences
that may impact fertility and health
outcomes in adulthood. Approximately
10% of respondents will be asked to
participate in a brief verification
process. Responses to the NSFG are
confidential.
In addition, CDC plans to conduct
several methodological studies designed
to improve the efficiency and validity of
NSFG data collection for the purposes
described above. These include a test of
face-to-face interview mode compared
to multi-mode participation that also
includes a web-based survey
component; test of an electronic life
history calendar; enhanced introductory
and reminder emails to increase
response rate; and collection of
auxiliary information to reduce
nonresponse bias or improve
nonresponse bias estimation.
Participation is voluntary, and there is
no cost to respondents other than their
time. The total estimated annualized
time burden to respondents is 6,122
hours.

Products will conduct research and use
a variety of media to inform and educate
the public, tobacco retailers, and health
professionals about the health risks of
tobacco use, how to quit using tobacco
products, and FDA’s role in regulating
tobacco.
To ensure that these educational and
public information programs have the
highest potential to be received,
understood, and accepted by those for
whom they are intended, the Center for
Tobacco Products will conduct research
and develop health messages relating to
the control and prevention of disease. In
conducting such research, FDA will use
quantitative methods (i.e., surveys,
experimental studies) for studies about
tobacco products. These studies may be
used to collect information related to
foundational research informing
message development or the formative
pretesting of tobacco communication
messages and other materials directed at
consumers. This type of research
involves: (1) Assessing audience
knowledge, attitudes, behaviors, and
other characteristics for the purpose of
determining the need for and
developing health messages,
communication strategies, and public
information programs; (2) pretesting
these health messages, strategies, and
program components while they are in
developmental form to assess audience
